I’ve known Justin for a couple of years as we’re regulars at Trailhead Liquor when we visit, and I finally got to sit down with him and get him on the record, so to speak, and we had a great old chat.
We chatted about Justin, his love of whiskey and spirits and we chatted about Liquor sales and distribution in Oregon as it’s a Control State. We talked about “Truck Chasers” a new expression to me, and how they manage those people at Trailhead who are constantly in search of hard to find or Unicorn bottles.
We talked about some of Justin’s favorite places in the area for a great cocktail and we even went down a rabbit hole of sorts on Rye, Aged Rye, and American Single Malt whiskeys.
And yes, we talked about Irish whiskey as we sipped on Justin’s Favo(u)rite Irish Whiskey, which is the Egan’s Legacy Reserve 15 year old Single Malt. A real treat of a whiskey I might add!
Listen along...
